OUT OF THE WAY BUT – The men in “Wildflower” are RK Bagatsing as Arnaldo and Wendell Ramos as Raul, now both out of the way. It seems Lily/ Ivy has the upper hand in her mission to topple the Ardientes from their exalted tower and free the “poblacion” from their deception and abuses.
But their remains the patriarch Julio (Tirso Cruz III) who vows to get even with Lily/Ivy and demolish her from the face of the earth. The Devil Incarnate.
“Wildflower” gets more and more exciting as the explosive climax nears.
More than revenge and fury, “Wildflower” is the story of a woman’s courage, determination, and resilience to find justice for her family and the people of a “poblacion.”
